A 2022 book of literary criticism by Arthur Rose, published by Edinburgh University Press in its Edinburgh Critical Studies in Modernist Culture series. Taking its title from Bruno Latour, it traces asbestos through literature and film from modernism to the present in three parts: utopian and mystery genres; salamanders in poetry, illness narratives and Franz Kafka's asbestos factory; and the mine, factory, home and dump. The author's grandfather managed mines at Koegas and Pomfret for Cape Asbestos.
